Tuesday

Tuesday is the day of the week between Monday and Wednesday. According to international standard ISO 8601, it is the second day of the week. According to some commonly used calendars, however, especially in the United States, it is the third day of the week. The English name is derived from Old English Tiwesdæg and Middle English Tewesday, meaning "Tīw's Day", the day of Tiw or Týr, the god of single combat, and law and justice in Norse mythology. Tiw was equated with Mars in the interpretatio germanica, and the name of the day is a translation of Latin dies Martis. more »

I ain't nobody, but I gotta speak up
I can speak for myself cause my family can talk
It's a whole lotta silence for my sisters and brothers
How many more days till we lose another mother

My race ain't a fetish, say f*ck yellow fever
My eyes don't define shit my skin color either
My people are dying but we ain't getting weaker
I wanna make change and it starts with the dreamers
Momma and pop worked hard
Late night shifts right down the boulevard
We're no different from the rest, I know
But you look at us different I can tell it shows
No I'm not smart cause I'm Asian, I'm smart cause I grind
I learn from my dad and I learned from my kind
I'm not into news it's a waste of my time
But I cannot be ignorant for once in my life
It's a whole lotta shit going on
Eight of my uncles and aunties are gone
Think of my parents cause it could've been them
Brings me to tears when you try to pretend
That you really care when you don't
Where was you at in school when they called me a chink
Where was you at when they taught you to think
Where was you at when my race was your kink
Enough is enough, I'm done being nice
I'ma talk my shit I'ma pay that price
It's a god given right and you took it away
Cold blooded killer I say f*ck a bad day
Can you really say you tried, for the ones you'd said you'd ride
Look at the ones who died, cause I see two sides but you sitting on one
Hop on a trend till it's gone
Cause the issue's still there
Burma in a crisis and nobody cares
Free Hong Kong, look at Tiananmen Square
Treating us different, but we breathe the same air
Dumb motherfuckers take they mask off just to put fake one on
March for your rights but I know it's a response
For the fear that you felt that we humans can bond
Not everyone is bad but you know who you are

I ain't nobody, but I gotta speak up
I can speak for myself cause my family can talk
It's a whole lotta silence for my sisters and brothers
How many more days till we lose another mother
My race ain't a fetish, say f*ck yellow fever
My eyes don't define shit my skin color either
My people are dying but we ain't getting weaker
I wanna make change and it starts with the dreamers
